Along with the prestige that comes with Hamline University, I chose Hamline because the campus had professors with real life experiences/careers. Being taught by someone still in the field I want to pursue is absolutely amazing.

The most valuable aspect of the university is the student to professor relationships. All of my professors, regardless of the type of class, wanted to create an atmosphere for learning and creativity in their own way. Their dedication to have their students learn and be engaged is incredible. I value the relationships that occur with the professors. Hamline University professors are lifelong mentors.

I chose Hamline for the diverse community and the small class sizes. It offers more time to connect with professors.

My favorite Hamline memory is going on a Target run freshman year with my roommate. It was the first time we hung out.
